Ixias 



Iris Hispanica 



READY IN OCTOBER 



The Named Hybrid Ixias are so beautiful and rich 

 in tints that no lover of flowers should be without 

 them 



They are 

 equally 

 adapted 

 for pots 

 or the 

 open 

 ground, 

 exceed- 

 i n g 1 y 

 f r e e - 

 flower- 

 ing, and 

 invaluable for cutting. 

 If planted out, 

 they require 

 rather more cover- ^ 

 ing during winter 

 than hyacinths. In ^- 

 pots their culture 

 is the same as that 

 usually recommended for 

 other bulbs. By reason of 

 curious forms and strange coloring, 

 the Ixias attract much attention.
